The last command in the History menu.

That doesn't work for me, even after emptying the cache and selecting
clear history, every time I start typing the URL for the BBC website, I
get as far as 'news' before it supplies the full URL to a section of the
site about international rugby fixtures that I went to a couple of years
ago. I don't share the OP's paranoia, but I do find it irritating.

Ignore that - the fixtures page was bookmarked. Auto-complete reads
bookmarks.

It's late and I'm tired, that's my only excuse!
